【０００２】
【従来の技術】
この種のワイヤハーネス用クランプとして、図８〜図１０に開示されたものがある。このワイヤハーネス用クランプ１は、図８に示すように、ワイヤハーネス７をテープ８を介して固定するクランプ本体２と、このクランプ本体２に軸部３を介して突設され、その先端の係止段部５を車輌用のパネル９の取付孔９ａに係止・離脱自在にした逆Ｖ字状で一対の可撓性係止腕４，４とから構成されている。
【０００３】
そして、図８に示すように、パネル９の取付孔９ａに一対の可撓性係止腕４，４の各係止段部５を係止させたワイヤハーネス用クランプ１の取り付け状態からワイヤハーネス７を取り外す場合には、図９に示すように、パネル９に対してワイヤハーネス７を矢印Ｒ方向に引き剥がしてクランプ本体２とワイヤハーネス７に巻き付けられたテープ８を切り、図１０に示すように、クランプ本体２からワイヤハーネス７を剥がしていた。
【０００４】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、前記従来のワイヤハーネス用クランプ１では、廃車時のリサイクル等においてワイヤハーネス７とワイヤハーネス７に付いているクランプ本体２を全て回収する際に、図１０に示すように、クランプ本体２とワイヤハーネス７に巻き付けられたテープ８を切っただけではパネル９側にクランプ本体２が残ってしまい、この残ったクランプ本体２をパネル９から取り外すための取り外し作業に時間がかかると共に、取り外し作業が煩雑であった。
【０００５】
そこで、本発明は、前記した課題を解決すべくなされたものであり、被取付体からクランプ本体及びワイヤハーネスを短時間でかつ簡単に取り外すことができるワイヤハーネス用クランプを提供することを目的とする。
【０００６】
【課題を解決するための手段】

【００１２】
図１〜図７に示すように、ワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０は、ワイヤハーネス７をテープ８を巻き付けることにより固定する合成樹脂製のクランプ本体１１と、このクランプ本体１１上の略中央に軸部１３を介して一体突出形成され、その先端１５ａ側の係止段部１６を車輌用のパネル（被取付体）９の取付孔（取付部）９ａに係止・離脱自在にした逆Ｖ字状で一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５とを備えている。
【００１３】
クランプ本体１１はワイヤハーネス７の幅と略同じ幅を有した長尺の略矩形板状に形成してあり、その上面１１ａの長手方向の両側に凸部１２をそれぞれ一体突出形成してある。そして、クランプ本体１１の下面１１ｂにワイヤハーネス７をテープ８を巻き回して固定するようになっている。
【００１４】
図２及び図７に示すように、軸部１３は略断面Ｈ字形の支柱状になっていて、その両側部１３ａ，１３ａの中央に各一対のスリット１４，１４を介して逆Ｖ字状で一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５を一体形成してある。これにより、一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各係止段部１６側が軸部１３の中央部１３ｂ側に弾性変形自在になっている。尚、一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５はクランプ本体１１の長手方向の両側に突出した各凸部１２側に向くように配置されている。
【００１５】
図１，図３，図７に示すように、一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各先端１５ａ側に位置する各係止段部１６は、各可撓性係止腕１５の正面（車輌用のパネル９の取付孔９ａに対向する面）１５ｂに対して略垂直な平坦面部１６ａと、この平坦面部１６ａに対して所定角度傾斜して先端１５ａまで延びるテーパ面部１６ｂとで段差状になっている。そして、各係止段部１６の平坦面部１６ａとテーパ面部１６ｂの境部分とクランプ本体１１の凸部１２との間で車輌用のパネル９を挾持するようにしてクランプ１０がパネル９に係止されるようになっている。
【００１６】
また、図７に示すように、各係止段部１６の平坦面部１６ａの両側と各可撓性係止腕１５の正面１５ｂの平坦面部１６ａ寄りの両側とで形成される角部（パネル９の取付孔９ａに対向する端部）には、離脱用の一対の斜面１７，１７をそれぞれ形成してある。この各斜面１７は三角形状になっていて、該各斜面１７の平坦面部１６ａとの境部分の一辺が離脱用のガイド部１７ａになっている。
【００１７】
さらに、図１，図７に示すように、各可撓性係止腕１５の正面１５ｂの両側には、その基端部１５ｃから係止段部１６の平坦面部１６ａ側まで延びる三角柱錐状で一対の肉盛り部１８，１８をそれぞれ一体突出形成してある。この各肉盛り部１８の係止段部１６側の端部には、離脱用の斜面１９を形成してある。この各斜面１９は三角形状になっていて、該各斜面１９の外側の一辺（正面１５ｂ側の辺の反対側の辺）が離脱用のガイド部１９ａになっている。
【００１８】
尚、図２に示すように、車輌用のパネル９の取付孔９ａは平面楕円形状になっていて、一対の可撓性係止腕１６，１６の基端部１５ｃ及び軸部１３の両側部１３ａ，１３ａ側が挿入できる大きさになっている。
【００１９】
以上実施形態のワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０によれば、パネル９の取付孔９ａにワイヤハーネス７をテープ８を巻き付けて固定したワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０を取り付ける場合には、まず、図２に示すように、パネル９の取付孔９ａに一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の基端部１５ｃ及び軸部１３の両側部１３ａ，１３ａ側を挿入する。この際、各可撓性係止腕１５の正面１５ｂの両側に形成された三角柱錐状で一対の肉盛り部１８，１８を介してスムーズに挿入することができる。
【００２０】
次に、この一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５をパネル９の取付孔９ａに更に押し付けると、一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５が軸部１３の中央部１３ｂ側に撓み、図３に示すように、該一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各係止段部１６がパネル９の取付孔９ａの周縁に簡単に係止され、その係止状態が各係止段部１６の平坦面部１６ａとテーパ面部１６ｂの境部分とクランプ本体１１の凸部１２との間で確実に保持される。
【００２１】
そして、図３に示すパネル９の取付孔９ａの周縁にワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０の一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各係止段部１６を係止した状態から該ワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０を取り外す場合に、図５及び図６に示すように、ワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０のクランプ本体１１にテープ８を巻き付けて固定されたワイヤハーネス７のクランプ本体１１の図５中左側に対向する部分を車輌用のパネル９から離れる矢印Ｐで示す方向（即ちワイヤハーネス７を剥がす方向）に引っ張ると、パネル９の取付孔９ａの周縁で一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各係止段部１６の図５中左側の斜面１７のガイド部１７ａが押圧されて該一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５が軸部１３の中央部１３ｂ側に弾性変形する。そして、ワイヤハーネス７を矢印Ｐ方向に更に引っ張ると、今度は、パネル９の取付孔９ａの周縁で一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各肉盛り部１８の図６中左側の斜面１９のガイド部１９ａが押圧されて該一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５が軸部１３の中央部１３ｂ側に更に弾性変形する。これらにより、一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各係止段部１６がパネル９の取付孔９ａの周縁から離脱して、ワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０とワイヤハーネス７をパネル９から簡単に取り外すことができる。
【００２２】
また、ワイヤハーネス７のクランプ本体１１の図５中右側に対向する部分を車輌用のパネル９から離れる方向に引っ張っても前記と同様にワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０とワイヤハーネス７をパネル９から簡単に取り外すことができる。この場合には、パネル９の取付孔９ａの周縁で一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各係止段部１６の図５中右側の斜面１７のガイド部１７ａ及び各肉盛り部１８の図６中左側の斜面１９のガイド部１９ａを介して該一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５が軸部１３の中央部１３ｂ側に弾性変形され、一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各係止段部１６がパネル９の取付孔９ａの周縁から離脱して、ワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０とワイヤハーネス７をパネル９から簡単に取り外すことができる。
【００２３】
このように、パネル９からワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０を取り外す際に、ワイヤハーネス７のクランプ本体１１の一方の側（図５，図６中左側或いは右側）をパネル９に対して離れる方向（即ちワイヤハーネス７を剥がす方向）に引っ張るだけの簡単な作業により、一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５の各斜面１７，１９の各ガイド部１７ａ，１９ａを介して該一対の可撓性係止腕１５，１５を軸部１３の中央部１３ｂ側にスムーズに弾性変形させることができ、ワイヤハーネス用クランプ１０とワイヤハーネス７をパネル９から極めて簡単な作業でかつ短時間に取り外すことができる。特に、図２及び図３に示すように、パネル９の取付孔９ａを楕円形状に形成すると共に、軸部１２及び各可撓性係止腕１５を取付孔９ａに適合する大きさに形成したので、ワイヤハーネス７のクランプ本体１１の一方の側を引っ張る際にスムーズに引っ張ることができる。
【００２４】
尚、前記実施形態によれば、ワイヤハーネスをクランプを介して車輌用のパネルに着脱自在にした場合を説明したが、被取付体は車輌用のパネルに限られるものでないことは勿論である。
【００２６】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、請求項１の発明によれば、クランプ本体に軸部を介して突設した一対の可撓性係止腕の被取付体の取付部に対向する面の両側にその基端部から各係止段部まで延びる肉盛り部をそれぞれ突設し、この各肉盛り部の係止段部側の端部に離脱用のガイド部を設けたので、ワイヤハーネスを被取付体に対して離れる方向に引っ張るだけの簡単な作業により、被取付体の取付部で一対の可撓性係止腕の各肉盛り部のガイド部を押圧して該一対の可撓性係止腕を軸部側に弾性変形させて該一対の可撓性係止腕の各係止段部を被取付体の取付部から離脱させることができる。これにより、クランプとワイヤハーネスを被取付体から短時間でかつ簡単に取り外すことができる。

Then, the wire harness clamp from the state in which the locking step portions 16 of the pair of flexible locking arms 15 and 15 of the wire harness clamp 10 are locked to the periphery of the mounting hole 9a of the panel 9 shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, a portion of the clamp body 11 of the wire harness 7 facing the left side in FIG. 5 that is fixed by wrapping the tape 8 around the clamp body 11 of the wire harness clamp 10 when removing the wire 10. Is pulled in the direction indicated by the arrow P away from the vehicle panel 9 (that is, the direction in which the wire harness 7 is peeled off), and each of the pair of flexible locking arms 15 and 15 is locked at the periphery of the mounting hole 9a of the panel 9. The guide portion 17 a of the slope 17 on the left side of the step portion 16 in FIG. 5 is pressed, and the pair of flexible locking arms 15, 15 are elastically deformed toward the central portion 13 b side of the shaft portion 13. When the wire harness 7 is further pulled in the direction of the arrow P, this time, the slope on the left side in FIG. 6 of each of the built-up portions 18 of the pair of flexible locking arms 15, 15 at the periphery of the mounting hole 9 a of the panel 9. The 19 guide portions 19 a are pressed, and the pair of flexible locking arms 15, 15 are further elastically deformed toward the central portion 13 b side of the shaft portion 13. As a result, the locking step portions 16 of the pair of flexible locking arms 15, 15 are detached from the peripheral edge of the mounting hole 9 a of the panel 9, and the wire harness clamp 10 and the wire harness 7 can be easily removed from the panel 9. Can be removed.
[0022]
Further, even if the portion of the clamp body 11 of the wire harness 7 facing the right side in FIG. 5 is pulled away from the vehicle panel 9, the wire harness clamp 10 and the wire harness 7 can be easily removed from the panel 9 in the same manner as described above. Can be removed. In this case, the guide portion 17a and the build-up portion 18 of the slope 17 on the right side in FIG. 5 of the locking step portions 16 of the pair of flexible locking arms 15 and 15 at the periphery of the mounting hole 9a of the panel 9. The pair of flexible locking arms 15, 15 are elastically deformed toward the central portion 13 b side of the shaft portion 13 through the guide portion 19 a of the left slope 19 in FIG. 6, and the pair of flexible locking arms 15. 15 can be detached from the peripheral edge of the mounting hole 9a of the panel 9, and the wire harness clamp 10 and the wire harness 7 can be easily detached from the panel 9.
[0023]
Thus, when the wire harness clamp 10 is removed from the panel 9, one side (the left side or the right side in FIGS. 5 and 6) of the wire harness 7 is separated from the panel 9 (that is, the wire). The pair of flexible locks can be obtained via the guide portions 17a and 19a of the slopes 17 and 19 of the pair of flexible lock arms 15 and 15 by a simple operation by simply pulling in the direction in which the harness 7 is peeled off. The arms 15 and 15 can be smoothly elastically deformed toward the central portion 13b of the shaft portion 13, and the wire harness clamp 10 and the wire harness 7 can be detached from the panel 9 in a very simple operation in a short time. In particular, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the mounting hole 9a of the panel 9 is formed in an elliptical shape, and the shaft portion 12 and each flexible locking arm 15 are formed in a size suitable for the mounting hole 9a. Therefore, when pulling one side of the clamp main body 11 of the wire harness 7, it can be pulled smoothly.
[0024]
In addition, according to the said embodiment, although the case where the wire harness was made detachable from the panel for vehicles via the clamp was demonstrated, it cannot be overemphasized that a to-be-attached body is not restricted to the panel for vehicles.
[0026]
【The invention's effect】
As described above , according to the first aspect of the present invention, the base is provided on both sides of the surface of the pair of flexible locking arms protruding from the clamp body via the shaft portion and facing the mounting portion of the mounted body. Since the build-up portions extending from the end portions to the respective locking step portions are respectively projected and the guide portions for separation are provided at the end portions of the respective build-up portions on the locking step portion side, the wire harness is attached to the body. The pair of flexible locking arms by pressing the guide portions of the built-up portions of the pair of flexible locking arms with the mounting portion of the body to be attached by a simple operation of simply pulling in a direction away from the pair Can be elastically deformed to the shaft portion side, and the respective locking step portions of the pair of flexible locking arms can be detached from the mounting portion of the mounted body. Thereby, a clamp and a wire harness can be easily removed from a to-be-attached body in a short time.
